Zip Clutch Color Opinions

:)Thread Starter

Hello! So basically I've wanted a zc for about 2.5 years.. the first one I ever saw was a redish colored one with silver hardware (owned by a mom I nannied for in Manhattan). Anyway, I fell in love with that style but couldn't afford it since I was in grad school. Fast forward to now- graduated & with a job.. ready to invest in my dream wallet.

I wanted opinions on two colors I've been looking into: Indigo w/silver hardware & Lilac w/gold hardware. I like the Indigo a lot.. it's on eBay so it's something I might now win. I think the Lilac is absolutely gorgeous. It hasn't come out yet and would be something I would buy at retail (maybe opening a card at Saks would be a way to get some type of discount). Also, I have an Emerald Sophia w/silver hardware (so it wouldn't match the gold), but then again it would be inside the bag, etc. etc.

baahh, ram, ewe!

i really like the lilac. the color is so pretty and the gold hardware complements it well. even though i have a mj bag in the indigo color, i think i would still prefer the lilac zc because the color is so much more eye-catching. if you do end up winning the auction and manage to get the indigo one for a great price, then i wouldn't feel so bad missing out on the full priced zc. either way, you win.

lighter colors for the zc don't wear well. They get color transfer and scratch easily. If you are looking for an everyday wallet then the darker leather quilted ones are the best and then the darker leather non-quilted ones.
